Partitions don't matter as they are simply logical separations of drive space which provide little to no value. The reason to separate things is for performance and to that end you need separate *physical* drive sets. For a small environment like that, you don't really need much; however, yes I would recommend three separate drive sets (*not* paritions): - 1 for the OS and SQL install - 1 for the SQL DB and ConfigMgr install - 1 for source files, the DP, and other misc use Note that with ConfigMgr, you *must* download updates locally to deploy them -- there is no choice. Updates in ConfigMgr are *not* deployed using WSUS, they are deployed as packages from the DP.Jason | http://blog.configmgrftw.com | Twitter @JasonSandys
